My friend's son's doctor recommended this foot cream for him, & as I was complaining about my terrible cracking feet, she passed on the recommendation.  
My feet were better the next day, & just kept getting better from there.  I highly, highly recommend! 

My sister told me I need to start using serums, so I bought this set just to try it out... & I'm sticking with it! My skin feels softer & my make up goes on smoother. It's less dry as we've started turning on the heater too. I definitely recommend!

I know there's about a million gadgets that pass in front of your eyes online and look like a future landfill item. THIS IS NOT ONE OF THOSE THINGS. Someone recommended it to us & it's SO AWESOME  My daughter is really susceptible to bug bites and they get HUGE. This is a lifesaver. Better than any cream we've bought for giving her relief. The only challenge with it is that the kids carry it around like a security blanket in the summer, so we keep misplacing it. I should probably buy more... but in the meantime, you should definitely try one!

I've never cared about my nails. I mean, I keep them clean, but I never had good luck with keeping nail polish from chipping, and I will never grow them long. I played cello throughout my childhood & had to keep my nails short.  Now I can't stand the feeling of long nails. I just got a shiver thinking about it.
As a result, I just let them grow & trimmed them, but after I started this blog & investing in myself a little, a woman posted about Color Street on another blog I was reading, & I decided to give it a try.
I'm now a Color Street for lifer. These are amazing.  They're easy, they're fun, & they last FOREVER for me. 
Seriously.  I change them when there's too much space on the bottom of my nail-- they stay on until my nails have grown too much & I have to change them.  That's incredible. I've got about 15 sets right now, & lots of extras from old manicures that I can use to create my own manis. I may have just ordered 3 more, too :)
Here's a couple of my manicures, & here's the link to my Color Street woman-- she's great- responsive & her Facebook group is really fun & engaging: Bethany's Beauty Room

I had to start this section of the blog with my Barefoot Dreams cardigan.  I own 4.  I generally buy one a year, & they all feel like new-- & by "new," I mean the softest sweaters in the world. Barefoot Dreams is well-known for its blankets, & its cardigans feel like wearing a blanket. 
Treat yourself & try one from Nordstrom-- it's risk free because they have free shipping & returns, but I'm willing to bet you won't be returning it!
PS- instead of washing mine, I use this.  Highly recommend!
